Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among US men. However, prostate imaging is still challenging despite the advances in multi-parametric Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), which provides both morphologic and functional information…
In this paper, we proposed a novel architecture of convolutional neural network (CNN), namely Z-net, for segmenting prostate from magnetic resonance images (MRIs). In the proposed Z-net, 5 pairs of Z-block and decoder Z-block with different…
Breast cancer is one of the common cancers that endanger the health of women globally. Accurate target lesion segmentation is essential for early clinical intervention and postoperative follow-up. Recently, many convolutional neural…
Deep Learning based techniques have gained significance over the past few years in the field of medicine. They are used in various applications such as classifying medical images, segmentation and identification. The existing architectures…
Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most prevalent cancer among men in the United States, accounting for nearly 300,000 cases, 29\% of all diagnoses and 35,000 total deaths in 2024. Traditional screening methods such as prostate-specific antigen…
Multi-parametric MR images have been shown to be effective in the non-invasive diagnosis of prostate cancer. Automated segmentation of the prostate eliminates the need for manual annotation by a radiologist which is time consuming. This…
Segmentation is one of the most significant steps in image processing. Segmenting an image is a technique that makes it possible to separate a digital image into various areas based on the different characteristics of pixels in the image.…
The central building block of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) is the convolution operator, which enables networks to construct informative features by fusing both spatial and channel-wise information within local receptive fields at…
Breast tumor segmentation is one of the key steps that helps us characterize and localize tumor regions. However, variable tumor morphology, blurred boundary, and similar intensity distributions bring challenges for accurate segmentation of…
This study focuses on comparing deep learning methods for the segmentation and quantification of uncertainty in prostate segmentation from MRI images. The aim is to improve the workflow of prostate cancer detection and diagnosis. Seven…
It is a challenge to segment the location and size of rectal cancer tumours through deep learning. In this paper, in order to improve the ability of extracting suffi-cient feature information in rectal tumour segmentation, attention…
Inter-and intra-observer variation in delineating regions of interest (ROIs) occurs because of differences in expertise level and preferences of the radiation oncologists. We evaluated the accuracy of a segmentation model using the U-Net…
Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have been used for automated detection of prostate cancer where Area Under Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) is usually used as the performance metric. Given that AUC is not…
Due to cellular heterogeneity, cell nuclei classification, segmentation, and detection from pathological images are challenging tasks. In the last few years, Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (DCNN) approaches have been shown…
Brain tumor imaging has been part of the clinical routine for many years to perform non-invasive detection and grading of tumors. Tumor segmentation is a crucial step for managing primary brain tumors because it allows a volumetric analysis…
In a wide range of semantic segmentation tasks, fully convolutional neural networks (F-CNNs) have been successfully leveraged to achieve state-of-the-art performance. Architectural innovations of F-CNNs have mainly been on improving spatial…
Segmenting ultrasound images is critical for various medical applications, but it offers significant challenges due to ultrasound images' inherent noise and unpredictability. To address these challenges, we proposed EUIS-Net, a CNN network…
This contribution presents a deep learning method for the segmentation of prostate zones in MRI images based on U-Net using additive and feature pyramid attention modules, which can improve the workflow of prostate cancer detection and…
Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have demonstrated state-of-the-art performance in medical image segmentation tasks. A common feature in most top-performing CNNs is an encoder-decoder architecture inspired by the U-Net. For multi-region…
Micro-ultrasound (micro-US) is a novel 29-MHz ultrasound technique that provides 3-4 times higher resolution than traditional ultrasound, potentially enabling low-cost, accurate diagnosis of prostate cancer. Accurate prostate segmentation…
